Mock Elections: Under a grant from the U.S. Election Assistance Commission, the League of Women Voters of Greater Pittsburgh will be holding mock elections in high schools throughout Allegheny County in October 2010. As a pilot project, 20 students from Propel Schools participated in a mock version of the November 2009 general election. See photos and mock election results here.


Save the date! Our annual Good Government Award Event will be held on November 4. More information will be available soon.

Facts for Citizens: a guide to your elected officials – 2010 Edition. Find out who represents you and how to communicate with them. Another resource for communicating with elected officials are the district maps and contact information published by Duquesne Light in the Use Your Voice booklets (PDF format). Select Allegheny County or Pittsburgh City Council for local officials. There is also a guide for Beaver County.

The League's publication describing Allegheny County government structure and functions has been updated and is available here.
